Seeing that he could not provide information that could satisfy his master, Garl began to get a little anxious. After all, he was still thinking about how to surpass Angelano. Besides, how could a qualified servant be clueless about his master's questions? Hence, after thinking for a moment, he hesitantly said, "Dear Master, I've also heard some rumors from other demons, but I don't know if they're true or not, so …"
"Go ahead." Lin Li couldn't blame Garl, because he had a low status here. How could a watchdog know much about his master? Even if he did, it was mostly hearsay.
"Yes, it's said that the owner of this place already existed when we, the Abyssal Demons, entered this place." Garl carefully passed on his message. Of course, he was very determined to do so. After all, the accuracy of this kind of information was really doubtful.
Already existed before the Abyssal Demons entered? Lin Li immediately heard the problem. Regardless of the origin of the mysterious owner of the Well of the Sun, according to Garl's statement, it seemed to be possible that the other party was not an Abyssal Demon. If it was not an Abyssal Demon, and the fact that the Well of the Sun used to be the Sun Shrine of the High Elves, could it be that the so-called owner was another High Elf?
However, Garl's next words exceeded Lin Li's expectations again. "Although I don't know who spread it, many of the Demon Lords here seem to be saying that the owner of this place should be a human."
"A human?"
According to Lin Li's thoughts, if the other party was not an Abyssal Demon, it was likely to be a High Elf. However, he never thought that it would be related to a human. Could it be that he was another unknown hero of the Dark Age?
However, when Geresco destroyed the Tree of Eternity, the Sun Shrine sank into the crack in space, and became the current Well of the Sun. More than half of the Sun Shrine had been destroyed in that disaster. Lin Li really could not imagine anyone who could have survived that disaster. Could it be the missing Geresco? However, when Geresco left Anril, it did not match the time when the Well of the Sun was formed. Besides, with Geresco's strength, he would have long been able to travel freely in the void. It was impossible for him to be trapped in such a place.
Although Garl said that the owner of the Well of the Sun might be a human, Lin Li was not happy at all. He would never forget that he had obtained the seven pieces of the debris of the stars in the Well of the Sun when he was in the Endless World. In other words, it was very likely that Lin Li really had the seven pieces of the debris of the stars, which was even more bizarre.
Although he had chatted with Garl for a long time, Lin Li did not stop, and instead walked towards the depths of the endless void. The debris of the stars in his hand, Nothingness, was also continuously emitting illusory power that enveloped him and resisted the invasion of the Power of Nothingness around him.
Although he was surrounded by nothingness, there was actually a very clear picture in Lin Li's mind. At this moment, he was walking in the direction where the Lord of Nothingness was hiding. After walking for about a few hundred meters, Lin Li finally stopped, and at the same time, he raised the Void Spear in his hand, and swung it towards the void in front of him.
It was as if a piece of black cloth had been slashed by a sharp blade. As the Void Spear slashed across, a large crack appeared in the dark void, and the golden light that belonged to the Well of the Sun also penetrated through the crack in the void. With the appearance of the crack in the void, a tragic roar suddenly sounded in the entire space, after which the void shook, and a pitch-black figure landed in front of Lin Li.
However, to his surprise, the pitch-black figure, which was the so-called Lord of Nothingness, did not immediately attack Lin Li after appearing. Instead, he knelt in front of Lin Li.
"Great Supreme Lord, please forgive me for my rudeness. I was just sleeping, and I had no intention of disrespecting you." The Lord of Nothingness was almost prostrating himself in front of Lin Li.
The words of the Lord of Nothingness stunned Lin Li. What the hell is going on? Since when did I become the Supreme Lord? The only person who can be addressed as the Supreme Lord by the Lord of Nothingness is probably the owner of the Well of the Sun. Could it be that the Lord of Nothingness also recognized the debris of the stars like Garl, and thus mistook me for the owner of the Well of the Sun?
However, while Lin Li was in a daze, the Lord of Nothingness suddenly reacted, and the body that was crawling in front of Lin Li suddenly expanded and exploded. It once again filled the entire space, and repaired the crack that Lin Li had just made. Immediately afterwards, the massive Power of Nothingness surged towards Lin Li's body in a bid to turn Lin Li's body into nothingness.
If this is a conspiracy, it seems to be a little too stupid! Although Lin Li was stunned for a moment, his reaction was not slow at all. The debris of the stars, Nothingness, suddenly erupted with power, and faced the attack that was surging towards him. The two powerful forces of Nothingness collided, but it did not cause the slightest fluctuation. The power of the Lord of Nothingness seemed to have no resistance at all, and was instantly devoured and assimilated by the power of the debris of the stars, Nothingness.
It was not that the Lord of Nothingness was too weak, but rather that he happened to be restrained by the debris of the stars, Nothingness. With the power of the debris of the stars, Nothingness, Lin Li could deal with the Lord of Nothingness much more easily than before. Wherever the power of the debris of the stars, Nothingness, passed, the endless void would be torn open, and the Power of Nothingness that filled the space would also be devoured and assimilated.
Lin Li did not need to speculate about the location of the Lord of Nothingness or rack his brains to think of a battle strategy like he did in the Endless World. Now, he had finally experienced the feeling of making the enemy helpless against him. The Power of Nothingness that surged towards him was just a supplement for the debris of the stars, and could not cause him any harm at all. The Lord of Nothingness, who was hidden in the void, could only watch helplessly as his power was devoured in large amounts, and his domain was cut into pieces.
In just a short moment, the Lord of Nothingness and the endless void completely disappeared from this world, and the palace that was covered by the void once again emitted a dazzling golden light. Besides, just like in Garl's territory previously, the magic gears on this floor had long lost their function. Except for the main body of the entire building, almost everything else had been turned into nothingness by the Lord of Nothingness.
All of these changes might not seem to be much to others. After all, they did not understand the strength of the Lord of Nothingness, nor had they personally experienced how terrifying the Lord of Nothingness was. However, Garl, who had lived in this world for thousands of years, knew the Lord of Nothingness very well.
Although the Lord of Nothingness did not cast any magic to attack the enemy like other demons, his ability to transform into nothingness was enough to make him one of the best among all the Demon Lords in the Well of the Sun. Seeing that the Lord of Nothingness and the Nothingness Domain that he had been managing for thousands of years were easily destroyed by Lin Li in just a moment, Garl still felt a chill run down his spine even though he had already signed a Soul Contract with Lin Li.
"Great Master, you're as admirable as a god. Even the sun in the sky of Anril can't compare to your brilliance. It's my honor to be able to become your servant … "As soon as he saw that the Lord of Nothingness had been killed, Garl immediately started sucking up to Lin Li.
"Cut the crap and tell them to come over," Lin Li instructed Garl without standing on ceremony. In his heart, he was thinking about the scene just now. Why would the Lord of Nothingness think that he was the owner of the Well of the Sun? Is it just because of the power of the debris of the stars, Nothingness?
Of course, that was not impossible. After all, the power of the debris of the stars was too unique, and almost no one would believe that there would be two identical pieces of the debris of the stars in this world. If the owner of the Well of the Sun really had seven pieces of the debris of the stars, it would be normal for the Lord of Nothingness to mistake Lin Li for him.
However, at the thought of this, Lin Li had another question in mind. Since the Lord of Nothingness had mistaken him for the owner of the Well of the Sun, it meant that the rumor that Mingel had mentioned previously was true, and the owner of the Well of the Sun was really a human. However, that also meant that the Lord of Nothingness had probably seen the owner of the Well of the Sun before. Otherwise, how could he be so sure that the owner of the Well of the Sun was a human?
Hence, there was a question that Lin Li was even more puzzled about. Since he had seen the owner of the Well of the Sun, why would he mistake him for someone else?
"Garl, what's the status of this Lord of Nothingness here? Is it possible that he has seen the owner of the Well of the Sun before?" Lin Li, who could not figure it out, tossed the question to the local bully, Garl. Although Garl was not doing well there, he was at least a Demon Lord of the first floor. Having lived there for thousands of years, he should know something useful.
Garl, who had just conveyed Lin Li's orders to the expedition, recalled for a while after receiving the question. He gloated, and said, "Although the Lord of Nothingness, Darc, is only on the third floor, his strength is definitely at the top here. It's just that he likes to turn everything into nothingness that he was sent down by the owner of this place."
The Lord of Nothingness's problem was somewhat similar to Garl's. One liked to turn everything into nothingness, while the other liked to swallow everything. Such unscrupulous tenants were naturally hated by landlords the most. They were lucky that the owner of the Well of the Sun did not get rid of them directly.
The only difference between the two was that Garl did not have the ability to occupy a high position, while the Lord of Nothingness was chased down by the owner of the Well of the Sun. Since he was chased down, there should be a high chance that the Lord of Nothingness had seen the mysterious owner of the Well of the Sun.
Was his face that common? Lin Li couldn't help but think of the past. It seemed that many people had mistaken him for the Immortal King, as well as the statue of the Immortal King in the Scar of Death that resembled him. In fact, in Prince Brahere's mausoleum, Brahere's soul actually called him father several times.
Could it be that the owner of the Well of the Sun is the Immortal King? Who else could it be other than the Immortal King who has seven pieces of the debris of the stars and can be mistaken for someone else so easily!? The Well of the Sun was originally moved there by the Immortal King, and in some ways, the Immortal King could indeed be considered the owner of the Well of the Sun.
At the thought of this, Lin Li couldn't help but shiver. If he really encountered the Immortal King, he would be in huge trouble.
The Immortal King was a powerful existence in the history of Anril that was closest to the gods. In the past, Lin Li might have felt that this statement was a little exaggerated, but after experiencing the adventures of the previous few worlds, he felt that it was simply too humble.
Can mortals create worlds!? Can they create life!? That kind of means of creation was probably something that even the gods in the general sense could not achieve. That was the power that only the true God of Creation and the God of Domination could possess. Although Lin Li had stepped into the Sanctuary-realm, he was still worlds apart from the realm of the Immortal King. Not to mention Lin Li, even if the three arbitrators of the Supreme Council joined forces, they might not be a match for the Immortal King.
However, after thinking about it carefully, Lin Li felt that it seemed impossible. If the owner of the Well of the Sun was the Immortal King, would he have allowed Osric to do whatever he wanted in the Sky Castle? Or could it be that the owner of the Well of the Sun was the Immortal King, but he had already left long ago?
At this moment, the expedition team that had been waiting outside quickly walked in neatly after receiving Lin Li's orders.
When Archbishop Martin and Donald saw that Lin Li's expression was a little sullen, they hurriedly went forward to ask, "Master Felic, have you encountered any problems?" It was no wonder that the two of them were so nervous. In their opinion, a problem that could make a Sanctuary powerhouse look sullen was definitely not a small problem.
Of course, Lin Li wouldn't tell them that he suspected that he might encounter the Immortal King here. Not to mention the fact that he didn't have any concrete evidence, he couldn't say it even if he did. If he were to say it out loud, even figures like Archbishop Martin and Donald would probably break down instantly, let alone the ordinary people in the team. Not everyone would have the courage to face the Immortal King.
Of course, that was just a guess, and Lin Li couldn't be sure that he would definitely encounter the Immortal King. Hence, he shook his head, and said, "Nothing, I was just thinking about some of the nomological methods that the Lord of Nothingness used just now."
To be honest, that was really not very convincing, but even though Archbishop Martin and Donald were puzzled, they didn't have the courage to interrogate Lin Li. Hence, they had no choice but to accept it. Not only did they have to accept it, but they also had to smile and compliment Lin Li by saying that he was diligent and diligent.
